Talk:Vegetarian and vegan symbolism

Vegan Flag
The Vegan Flag is not a recognised symbol. Source content is from a corporation trying to promote their product. Although it appears there are six independent sources these are all article based off the same press release. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.25.127.132 (talk) 21:05, 29 December 2017 (UTC)

I doubt if the vegan flag is really a Civil_flag.

V-Label trademark or public domain
The V-Label shown here is a trademark by the EVU and not "public domain". How can I tag this immage to be removed from this page?

Merger from Vegetarian and non-vegetarian marks
This page, Vegetarian and non-vegetarian marks, seems to just be one country's implementation of Vegetarian and vegan symbolism. I propose merging it and adding a redirect to avoid confusion. Jmill1806 (talk) 18:46, 5 September 2020 (UTC)
 * Since the page is so short, I support the merger. Historyday01 (talk) 15:32, 6 September 2020 (UTC)
 * I'm not so sure. Is the size of the stub article the primary reason for the merger? What we do not seem to have is a history of certification systems (which I think better describes what we are trying to research and discuss here).  I think that a deeper dive into both Indian markings (religious reasons? who credentials the accuracy of these labels, or is it entirely cultural?) and the related topics is warranted.  How about the private aspirations for creating a payment scheme for certifying cruelty-free products, and the discussions inside the US FDA about credentialing kosher, vegan, and halal (should it be supervised by the government or by private concerns)? There is far more to research before deciding on a merger of two underdeveloped articles.  India's history with these 'marks' may be worth reporting, keeping that article as the main article on the yet-to-be-developed topic. MaynardClark (talk) 13:41, 8 September 2020 (UTC)
 * To me, it's not the size of the article directly. It's the narrowness of the India-specific topic. I think a deeper dive would be nice to do before a merge, or any big changes, because it's better to scour for info before changing WP structure, I think. I myself don't have the time for that, so I still support a merger in the meantime. Jmill1806 (talk) 00:42, 13 September 2020 (UTC)
 * Hmm, perhaps that is a good idea. Good point there.--Historyday01 (talk) 00:16, 5 October 2020 (UTC)
